Happy Haunting


 I went from a spring card to a St. Patrick's day card and rushed all the way through to a Halloween card today! ๐Ÿ˜‰ I'm just all over the place!

Anyway, I made this card for the Two Old Bats Halloween challenge for March. I used Tim Holtz crazy cats and accessories stamps and fussy cut them after coloring with Copics. I added 2 die-cut little mice from Gina K Designs and double cut the borders with Sweet 'n Sassy dies, swapping the negatives for a fun look. I found the sentiment already printed in my stash.


Thanks for stopping by and I hope your weekend is a great one!

Hi Carol:
This is cute. Yes, unexpected for St. Patrick's Day, but cute nonetheless. In fact, I just purchased a DARLING Halloween stamp set the other day for just $1 at Poppy Stamps. I was so excited to find such a bargain. Well, and then I bought a few full-priced items as well (lol). You know how we are as crafters....gotta have it, right?
Thanks SO MUCH for stopping by my blog to say hello. I really appreciate it and I'd LOVE to have you as a new follower.
Have a blessed and creative week.

Hi Carol, you are very eclectic and perhaps the next card will be a Christmas one? :D
It's a very fun and striking card with that sentiment, the cat and the mice!! The cat seem one of mine own cats, she is always ready to catch mice around the chicken house!! :D Love the accessories, especially the pumpkin and the two scallop borders with the opposite inlay make the card so cute!! Very well done!
Hugs, peace and love on your way! Here in Italy things aren't very good.

A cute fun Halloween card! Love the expression on the cat’s face! Cute little mice and love the star scalloped border, too!

HaHa the cat, the look... absolutely wonderful. That was quite a whistle stop tour to get to Halloween but I do like all the spookiness of your card. I rather like the little mice, strange for me as in reality I'd swing from the light fittings if one of those ran past me! Fun card x

Love, love, looooovvveeeee!!! Which, I'm sure, is not a huge surprise given my unending passion for Halloween. :D

It is awesome to see someone else beyond myself creating a spooky season project this far in advance. #MakeHalloween365 for the win! :)
